The failed tale of Crusader Rabbit
It was a slow day. I made quite an elaborate photostory involving a hybrid doll as Crusader Rabbit and a pagan infidel. Then I realized I couldn't use any of it because, you know, holy war and all.

would probably not sit well with people who adhere to such faith since it was a story about the Crusades. The only way to salvage it would have been to have some "we are all one color, kumbaya" ending and there is no way I could do that without throwing myself in front of a train afterwards. And that sort of thing just delays the trains and no one's happy. This way I'm the only one disappointed. Ah well. It'll go in the vault with my Heroes contest entry.
She looked cute anyway. Well, maybe not so much cute as completely ridiculous. And this way I don't have to worry about the historical inaccuracies of her sword (still not able to find a two-handed broadsword, what is up with that?). Bad, bad, hasty photo. I super-suck more than usual recently. I'm going to go ahead and blame a liberal Congress for that. Yeah!

Ah, forgot to add. The mystery of the missing tulips has been solved. My kinda pricey parrot and fringed bulbs never sprouted despite my poking and I finally found out why. The neighbor's cat has been sleeping on their bed all year. He doesn't get comfortable there until after I've left and he's gone by the time I get home. Poor buggers never had a chance. At least he didn't eat them or do ... worse things. I could be angry but this just gives me an excuse to go back to Roger's Gardens and buy some more. Yay!

That is tooooooooooo funny. Screw PC crap! Crusade away! Where did the little A-rab doll come from? TOO funny! Onward infidel army! Hi ho Crusader away! He was a Jay Ward creation, right? Wonder if Bullwinkle was off to the "holy land" (INDIA!) to build castles as well? I wanna see the rest of those photos! (Chef recommends a "family only" posting...)
The infidel is the Cairo Swordsman from the first Indiana Jones movie although it's a new toy. Yes, Jay Ward! So dang hard to find now. Letting me to considerish your suggestion box entry.
